Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!

The past couple of weeks have been a flurry of activity!
We again enjoyed a wonderful weekend with the Rockholds and Mickelsons. We went to Camp Forest Springs for the Christmas Dinner Theater. Of course, we stopped in Fennimore for some Wisconsin cheese, and had to get a winter picture with Igor, the Carr Valley Cheese mascot.
The trip is just over 400 miles, and believe me, we laughed almost all the way!

When we arrived at CFS, we were treated as royal guests. We enjoyed appetizers, an excellent dinner, and the play, which was the best yet! It was an intense drama with a touch of humor. It was fun, and at the same time, portrayed how desperately we need Jesus Christ, and the difference He makes in our lives.




We got a little snow the following weekend, and took the little boys sledding at the cemetery. That's always fun.




















Christmas was spent with family from both "sides". We spent Christmas Eve with the Schulte bunch at Pam's house. Then, Christmas morning, we went to Tyler and Kathy's for a fine Christmas breakfast. While we were there, Zach cut his hand with Wyatt's new pocket knife. It was a pretty bad cut, but with a little tape and some super-glue, they got him fixed up. Then, Travis and Gail's for a delicious dinner, and off to Mom and Dad's for supper with the Nye clan.


One of the special joys of this Christmas was getting to meet Ruben's mom and sisters. They came from Honduras to spend Christmas with us, and we were blessed by the time we shared with them.








Snow started falling on Christmas day, and this morning we have about 5-6 inches on the ground with snow still falling. It's beautiful!



All too soon, this year will be history! Happy New Year!

Yes, the snow was beautiful today. I stayed in all day and enjoyed it even more. Sounds like you have been really busy lately. The New Year will be here shortly. Hope 2010 will be good to all of us.
